NEWKID 27,230 Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 Was speaking to the woman who rents a place off me earlier, she was saying she doesn't do Christmas but celebrates solstice, she's a nurse so works Christmas day to give others who do celebrate it a day off.... 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
